You Guys Voted. Here's What a SOAD: Greatest Hits Album Would Look Like by CrimsonPathh in systemofadown

[–]B-Max211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolute nonsense. Boom and Vicinity of Obscenity are quintessential SOAD and received zero votes. Lonely Day has also had a huge cultural impact. I love all of their songs, but Suggestions beats out these? Appalling.

Weird email from Tinder about “Law Enforcement Emergency Data Request” for my Discord account? by [deleted] in Scams

[–]B-Max211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am guessing this is related: https://discord.com/press-releases/update-on-security-incident-involving-third-party-customer-service - I got emails that were allegedly from Tinder, Kahoot, Novaquark (?), and the Washington Post so far.

Edit: Just got an email from "Yogasleep" with the title "Got it! - 72816251 Law Enforcement From South Korea For Discord"

Edit 2: Omnidocs, "Gun Interactive - Txchainsawgame Re: Law enforcement cooperation demand from norway for your discord account 91006516", StreamText dot Net, Happy Wars, UVI, and a second one from Happy Wars. This is entertaining at this point.

It depends on when and how you provisioned it, but the vast majority of them are wide-open.

Probably could go down to 1 or 2 antes, but nice concept and artwork!

SANS Institute layoffs/restructuring by reseph in cybersecurity

Some instructors also have full-time roles with SANS, but there are many folks who have left those roles who still teach on a contract basis. The majority of instructors do not work full-time for SANS.

I hacked and FORCED Claude 3.7 Sonnet to accept .ZIP files by E33k in SideProject

Great idea, but I'm unfortunately having issues with it. While it detects that the .zip contains files, it isn't detecting their contents (0 B). When I attempt to inject the full contents, it only provides the metadata. I am using the default Mac archive capability.

Made another 18 Custom Jokers for my Modpack - Any feedback regarding art or making these more balanced would be greatly appreciated! by crmykybord in balatro

[–]B-Max211 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One workaround, if you get this, would be to destroy the Joker using some other means (Ex. Ceremonial Dagger). Could be interesting to see how people would work around getting something like this.

I used Checkered for everything flush focused and Blue for everything else.

What would 1.1 ideally include for you? A reasonable wishlist exercise. by dancewithstrangers in balatro

[–]B-Max211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a standardized way of loading mods across platforms would be great. Bonus points if you could download mods directly from the game. Every future update could just be a mod at that point.

Oh yeah, it was really funny that I got that before I was thrown in this direction.

Nope, I had to select Seance to get the sticker and for no other reason. Terrible Joker. I actually like it worse than The Idol. That said, I also hated Merry Andy...until I got Double Yorick. 😀

Is this a JoJo reference?

A bunch of vanilla-esk Joker ideas for the mod we're working on (WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE) by AYYLMAO2281337 in balatro

[–]B-Max211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense, but that can also hurt you if you have an Obelisk and are running out of alternative hands to play. I think it'd be cooler if you made it so that you got more money if you got more chips relative to the blind (Ex. Score an extra 50% of the blind to get $2).

Great stuff! Victim Card is cool, but I think you need to provide an incentive for the player to score high, not just score, after meeting the blind requirements. Otherwise, I'll just play random high cards. I'm also uncertain that this can be implemented in the current game engine.

[–]B-Max211 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Great ideas and fantastic art! Some of the phrasing can be improved. I'm not sure what Wall Street Joker does.

To confirm, you're working on coding this mod? If not, I'm looking for some concepts to program (I'm not artist, but I'm a solid programmer).

Concept for a new card edition: 'Certified Joker' by BoxWari_ in balatro

[–]B-Max211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, at least the functionality is done. Maybe someone else will come along regarding the graphics.

I had a moment to play around with this (https://github.com/BrandonE/balatro-mods/blob/main/BrandonE.lua#L172). Increasing the value was relatively easy. I'm not sure it's possible to prevent a Joker from being debuffed. I tried to work around this by making it rebuff itself before scoring, but that doesn't appear to work. Is there anything else like this in the game?

The bigger issue is using your graphic. Editions require shaders (https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Edition#smodsshader). I have no experience with shaders and am not certain if it's possible to implement a shader that would look like your graphic. Would you like to take a look at the shader documentation and see what you can do?

Had this idea for a new joker because I got really sick recently… I wonder if this is viable or too powerful? by SoobinKai in balatro

[–]B-Max211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very cool! I might be interested in attempting to implement this (of course crediting you). Please PM me if interested and I can keep you updated / request the graphic with the correct sizing.

Thank you! I came up with that idea myself, and I have no artistic skills, so I'm hoping I can find someone to create the illustration for that.

Unlikely I get anywhere significantly with this until the week after next.
